1. Benchmark Technical Information
1.1 Introduction
'nbench' is an old benchmark which was written long before machines had as many cpu packages as those from today.Nowdays it's still useful because it approximates the kind of performance one can get from a single-thread on your system (Some 3rd party vendors still provide software that's either single-threaded or has so many locking issues that it exhibits performance akin to that of a single-threaded application).
What interest is there in having 1,024 cpus in a single machine if your message passing middleware runs as a single-threaded task due to poor concurrency programming? In this very specific use case, it's good to be able to have metrics on the single-threaded performance of several machines to figure where the above task might run best.

Thanks a lot for all those benchmarks! In fact I've been looking for something like that for some time now since I do have T1 in T2000 and this thing is not good for mu actual compiler development where bootstrap of whole compiler took several hours. I've been curious if for example SPARC64 in M4000 may do better job on compilation. Now it looks like the difference is not that big indeed, but on the other hand still tempting. :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW: My T1 is 1 GHz, running with Solaris 11.1, nbench compiled with provided gcc 4.5.2 and I got quite boost on integer performance in comparison with your results:

Hi Vincent,
ReplyDeleteGreat post, very useful. Do you have numbers for the new SPARC M7?
Regards,
Hi Ronaldo,
ReplyDeleteNope. I don't have access to SPARC H/W anymore.
I agree it would be an interesting number.
Regards,
Vincent
Thanks Vincent. I'll try to get one T7 box to run nbench and I'll post here the results. It's not going to happen soon though.
ReplyDeleteAny numbers yet, very keen to know!
ReplyDeleteHere are the numbers from a T7 with 16 4.1 GHz CPUs. Compiled with gcc 3.4.3, CFLAGS = -s -Wall -O3.

Hi David,
DeleteI find these numbers a little disappointing. Would you mind using the same binary as the one I used before?
I could attach it here.
